I shoot a lot of video and photos and was needing more space for storing that stuff on my computer. The WD Blue 4tb drive was enough of an upgrade for now. I'm hoping the bigger SSD's will eventually come down in price and then this will become a backup drive.

Needed disk space for backups. Easy install, works great.

Does what it says. Lots of space and easy install.

I wouldn't recommend it for running your operating systems but if you need a drive for holding older games and or documents this would be a great option. keep in mind it's a 5400 RPM drive but it doesn't matter for storing documents or older games

It was relatively to install the drive once I had the SATA cable. It would have been nice for the cable to be included. The drive was immediately identified. It formatted immediately and was available for use almost at once. Lots of storage for a very fair price.

Lots of storage. Makes very little noise. Quiet, Worth the money

4TB for under $100? Take my money. Super easy upgrade for a portable gaming rig or media server.

I purchased these for a raid 1 install and they are working great. I had older 7200rpm drives and these 5400rpm drives are actually must faster and more responsive. I was getting throughputs in the 100 mb/sec range when copying data onto them.

Great Fast and Practical, Needed for storing Photos and Games. Works amazing and you can Partition it. I did about 6 anyways.

Good price for 4 TB drive, never had issues with WD drives.

WD hard drives are the best and this one fits that category as well. I've had now, for well over a year, and thankfully no fails or glitches.

Love this HD. Able to store files and photos on drive like a external. Can put into dock when needed. Don't have to worry about over filling HD in computer.

The sad fact is that no Hard Drive, no matter how well it is built, is going to last forever. Time and use eventually turns any piece of equipment into little more than a paperweight, and that's what happened to my original Hard Drive that came with my personal computer. So...after six years of use, which led to longer and longer boot-up times for my computer when accessing information on my hard drive, the time came to replace it. The WD Blue 4 TB HDD was a no-brainer. Similar to the one I already had, it offered a simple replacement at a cost that wouldn't break the bank. And, because it was six years newer than my old HDD, it had the benefit of being faster and more efficient than my old one. So far, not a single issue has come up, and the computer functions perfectly.

Western Digital is a product company that is known in the computer community. It is a very reliable hard drive 4TB is more than enough for a one time purchase wroth of storage and future proofing your product. This hard drive is definitely a go to purchase.

I mostly use these larger drives in my RAID based NAS systems. They are very reliable but like anything mechanical, can eventually fail. But because of the low price point and RAID technology, swapping in a new drive doesn't cost me any data or much money.

I was originally searching for a 1 or 2 Terabyte Drive, for twice the price of this 4 TB drive. After installing it on my clients desktop, the speed (for a spindle based harddrive) and the ease of installation make this an incredible purchase. Highly recommend it!

Best hd drive I have ever bought. Will purchase again soon for another Computer hard drive upgrade. Worth all 5 stars. And the price was great.

I actually used two of these and filled them for long term storage if large video files. Worked as it should.

I bought two of these hard drives to expand my already too large media library. Zero problems so far and I always go with WD so I'm confident they'll be fine. Couldn't beat the price Best Buy is selling these right now.

WD makes a solid hard drive that is a good value !!
